A new state law (AB 607) requires California Community Colleges to be transparent with students in all course material costs. Faculty have always been required to report their textbook adoptions, this new law requires reporting other required supplies such as calculators, safety equipment, or art supplies. This workshop will help faculty navigate reporting material costs through the bookstore and through course schedule notes. It will also provide updates about the new Zero Textbook Costs (ZTC) electronic form where faculty can designate classes as ZTC and get the symbol on the class schedule. There will be plenty of time for Q&A as well.
Districtwide Flex event. Sponsored by the District Affordable Learning Materials Committee.
